What does "Semi F-locked" mean? It means most of my posts, when I'm in the mood and/or remember, are going to be viewable only to a "Custom Group" that consists of most of my Friends list. So if you're on my list, you'll need to be signed in to see most of my more recent posts. (Tooooo lazy to go back and change the viewability of all my old posts.)

If you're signed in and still not seeing anything new, drop me a comment here and I'll check and see if I forgot to add you to the group. I try to keep on top of things, but I lose track sometimes until someone says something.

If you're curious why I've done this, leave me a comment and I'll see if I can remember how to set comments to only be viewable by the person they're in reply to.

:/ Doc?:/ Doc?:/ Doc, what are you doing?

Somethin' stupid. :D

:/ Well okay then, as long as you're aware.

But in all seriousness, yes. This is a thing I'm doing. I'm not entirely sure what it will consist of, but creative effort will be put forth in a collaborative fashion. ...I think, anyway....WOO! TEAM JOHN<>VRISKA!!!!!!!!

doctorv: *snork* I think fic descriptions have reached a level where they can be actual cliches now. "[Noun] leaves [Character] [adjective], but [noun] from [other Character] may be more than he bargained for."doctorv: TELL ME YOU'VE NEVER SEEN THAT DESCRIPTION BEFORE.doctorv: YOU CAN'T, CAN YOU?( She could not.Collapse )

If I ever get around to continuing my Superior Write-Fu thing, this will probably get a mention.

I need to move, my love, but I can't bear to move your handTo break that contact for the briefest of heartbeatsTo lose all but the phantom of your warmth for the slightestsinglesolitarysecond of time.A second birthing infinite universes of being without your touchA second of rending my soul asunder at your lossA second in which I do not know the sweetness of your handAgainst my skin.And so, my love, I think...I would gladly be a statue, unending, never moving,If you would but leave your hand upon me always.

...Another 'bot responded to my post about my uncle's funeral. For serious, what the shit? :/

Bluh, I need to start posting regularly again, this is ridiculous. *headdesk* God, so tired, so sick. Fffff.

EDIT: And then a potential 'bot responded to this post. WTFingF?Though if you're not a 'bot, dude, I'm sorry I deleted your comment. ...Whatever the hell you said. o_0 Need some English up ins if you want me to understand.

So this is a conversation that happened. And now there's art. And I may eventually write a thing. I am so sorry.

half_life_wolf: "YOUR FIC PROMOTES ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIPS BOO HISS"half_life_wolf: and I'm like WHERE ARE YOU GETTING THIS FROM HAVE I REALLY FAILED THAT HARD???doctorv: Pluh! People will interpret weird shit into your writings no matter what, but it sometimes says more about them than you or your writings.

And then I went away for a weekend and oh my god you guys I have a coconut I need to crack open and eat from. This is in no way topic-relevant, but I just saw it a second ago when I was getting water and it occurred to me that coconuts ARE a thing that goes bad. So yeah. Also holy shit, how much snot is actually capable of fitting in my body??? THE ANSWER MAY SURPRISE YOU!!!!

Alsoalsoalso, I think that in this AU where I guess everyone just works shitty minimum wage jobs and that's the AU theme, Karkat works at the local movie theater and John TOTALLY DOESN'T FLIRT WITH HIM SO HE'LL GET JOHN IN FOR FREE, OKAY? It's not flirting, it is just completely platonic hetebrosexual joking around and Karkat is a great buddy for letting him watch that new Nic Cage movie like a bajillion times so John takes him out for McDonalds afterward and uses his employee discount. (OKAY I AM A DELICATE AND IMPRESSIONABLE FLOWER, HERE, FOLKS AND I DO NOT NEED MORE PLOT BUNNIES, HOLY SHIT. Also, Terezi has been fired from every craft supply store in town and a Bed, Bath, & Beyond.)

Uuuuuugh, how long's it been since I updated? Sorry for the long silence. Life has been...hectic, to say the least. *grimace*

Jack in the Box has been denying Nick's unemployment for a bullshit, made up reason. Nick's too...I don't even know what. Apathetic? Whatever. Apparently he hasn't given enough of a shit about having extra income in order to actually pursue it, so fucking whatever. (Can you tell this has been a source of some annoyance for me?) I guess it doesn't matter much anymore, since Nick started at WalMart this week. Still want to wring at least a little money out of those dickweeds.

Beginning of the month was pretty scary, because we didn't have any money and couldn't get ahold of any of the assholes who owe us money (another thing Nick hasn't been pursuing much). Luckily, Nick's IRS refund came in just in time. Like, literally it came in the mail the last day rent was due. So that was a bullet neatly dodged.

I have, in the mean time, been working my ass off in produce and getting very goddamn tired of all these managers up in my business. So I asked for a transfer to another store. ...I asked over a month ago and my manager still hasn't fucking contacted them, so I'm going to be looking for work elsewhere because fuck this and fuck them. I am just completely fed up with the manager's bullshit. On top of that, I find out that after five years of raises I'm still making less than the starting pay at WalMart. I mean seriously, what the actual fuck is that even. So yeah, my plan is to use up all my medical insurance that I have with Kroger (new glasses, maybe get my teeth checked, general check-up, etcetera), find a new job, and then finally put Kroger behind me for good. May give my union rep a nice card before I go, he's been pretty helpful and I appreciate it.

In less bitchy news (and I may do a separate post later for getting into depth on the job bitchery), Nick and I are going to Dallas Comic Con this weekend for his birthday. Special guests are Stan Lee and Leonard Nimoy and we are super stoked about it. Also Todd Nauck is going to be there and I've been a fan since his work on Young Justice. So yeah, mental squees are happening. I am really looking forward to having a whole weekend where I don't have to worry about much and have no real responsibilities and can just fucking RELAX. (And now that Nick's working again, I think my stress levels are going to go down considerably.) For the past month or two I've just been constantly busy, constantly working, constantly taking care of something and I just...I am just so very, very tired. So yes, Con can't come soon enough. I'll probably spend most of it wearing my Booster Gold Fan Club shirt (yes, I have one). I'll probably be keeping an eye out for anyone cosplaying Booster and trying to get a pic with them. If I manage this, I will definitely post pics to boostle. (Oh god how long has it been since I posted there? I'm sorry for neglecting youuuuu! *wibble*) If anyone else is going to Dallas Comic Con, hit me up for a "hello" and/or possibly a sketch. (Speaking of sketches, I may have been commissioned last night to do a picture for monies. Details in a separate post once I know more.) Promise I'll say "hi" back! ...And possibly not tell you to fuck off! :D

Aaand finally, to cap things off, I dropped my phone yesterday and now it's broke. Having a new one sent to my parents' house, so it should get there about the same time that we do.

And yes, I did in fact report this user to Livejournal as a potential spambot. I went and looked at their journal and they have ONE entry, which I couldn't see, and TWO tags, which I also couldn't see. If they respond and explain themself, proving themself to be a real person (and not one who was intending to spam my journal), I'll certainly see about contacting LJ and retracting my report. In the mean time, I'm making an example of them. ;P
